Highlights

The class takes place in a private home studio, conveniently located just a 1-minute walk from the station and close to Tokyo Skytree. You will be greeted by the instructor, Michiko, who will start with a short introduction about the traditions behind wagashi and its importance in Japanese culture. You will then learn how to make daifuku, mitarashi dango (mochi on skewers), and warabi mochi. The class concludes with a tasting session served with traditional green tea. Michiko is a certified Wagashi Instructor and fluent in English, so she'll be happy to share insights into local life as well as advice on where to shop or sightsee in Tokyo.

About Tokyo

Neon-lit districts, quiet shrines, superb food and distinct neighbourhoods make up Tokyo, a vast, orderly metropolis linked by punctual trains.

Every district feels like its own city. Shibuya's famous scramble crossing and Shinjuku's towers, bars and Golden Gai alleys pulse with energy, while Harajuku mixes youth fashion with the forested calm of the Meiji Jingu shrine. In Asakusa, the Sensō-ji temple and its market street keep an older Tokyo alive, and Ginza offers polished department stores and galleries.

Top-ranked sights in Tokyo: Senso-ji Temple (Asakusa Temple), Tokyo Imperial Palace, Meiji Shrine (Meiji Jingu).
